What a week!

Maise has been sicker than she has ever been before. She has been running a fever as high as 103 for a long time now. She was acting a little off and then 3 am Saturday morning the fever appeared. The wild thing is that it keeps going up and down and in some respects has been under control. I took her in to see the doctor yesterday and found out this is a virus that popped up and it was crazy how many people in our area all had the same exact facts to present to the doctor. She was not given any meds, but we can continue the fever reducer. The doctor said it would probably run around 5 more days. I took yesterday off and Joe will be home the next two...let's just hope she beats this quick. And PLEASE keep Nessa healthy.

So the battle of the virus put a few restrictions on this weekends activities. Maise missed her friend Athina's communion but wants to say good job!! Nessa and I went to celebrate but had to turn back around when Maise got a little worse for grandma. Maise was still running a high fever but was doing much better, not well enough to do our walk unfortunately. We have rescheduled and will be Marching For Babies, September 17th in Dixon, Illinois. You know what? We are cool with that because we are a Fall loving kind of family and this will be a fun way to celebrate Joe's birthday. We have never been to Dixon, so chalk it up to new experience.

Nessa went to a birthday party, for her cousins Vito (5) and Rocco (1), on Sunday while Maise stayed home resting with daddy. It was actually kind of nice to have a little mommy and Nessa time, and daddy and Maise time. It is hard to allow for separate bonding so I am very grateful to have at least had one positive from my poor sick babies situation.

I am back to work today, already swamped and behind but pushing forward. My "deadlines" for this evening are complete (BIG SIGH OF RELIEF)! Tomorrow we host the Bulls Game, so I better hit the store for some Bulls gear for the ladies!

Fun fact for the week....Joe and I celebrated 17 years together this past weekend.
                                          17 YEARS! Holy Smokes!!

Have a great week!

  1. I hope Maise feels better, I like in the post below where you said she named her little people, she picked great names! It is hard finding separate bonding time with the kiddos. Have another happy 17 years!
